Queens of The Stone Age – October 10th – Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Photos by Jim Mimna

Queens Of The Stone Age brought their Villains Tour to Red Rocks Tuesday night to a sold-out audience.  This late in the season, Red Rocks can be an unpredictable host, but that didn’t stop loyal fans from packing the joint and letting it all hang out in cold mountain air.  Like most of the fans in attendance, this was my last show at the church of music for the season, a bittersweet end.  This show, like the many I covered there over the years, was special for me for two reasons: 1st because music is the universal language.  After all, every heart has a beat. The 2nd is the magic of Red Rocks itself that elevates every concert it hosts to the next level.  Both are equally powerful, transcending language and culture to sooth the soul and nurture the spirit….two things that are needed now more than ever in these chaotic times.

For now enjoy the photos, I will see you next year!
